Where did they live?......Battersea & Fulham

Which census is the last on which you have found them together? 1881

Is the death in 1901 that of his wife? Yes..oops no it's not her death, sorry got chemo brain

Have you thought that he may have moved? Perhaps to live with a son or daughter?
On later census & from what i know the family stayed in Battersea or Fulham

How am i able to answers the questions above...... We come from the same family & Brillo is my Aunt
